In the pit of Avon Way garage plot, at the stream and opposite the old goat yard of William Harry Stagg stands some young person's dream of renovation for a small Kevin McCloud style home with all the features of a Grand Design, including only a footpath access, impossible construction traffic approach, steep main road to the south, conservation valley and steep, steep path to the north and an old well to the south. You need good feet on the cobble and slab, preferably not in winter cold, although I know eldery ladies who tramped this as home for years when the upslope was all Combe Fields, to the stream lined with large trees to Combe Road gate.
